Bug description: ereg and preg problems
$data = eregi_replace("(.*)", prodwebsearch('\\1'), "$data");
function prodwebsearch($search) {
# here search is fine
# search = ultra 5
return prodsearch($search);
}
function prodsearch($search) {
#here its not
# search = \1
return $search;
}
(this is just an example)
why does $search change to \1?
